Leaflet advertising a demonstration against sales of the Krugerrand gold coin on June 17 at 15th and Market Streets in Philadelphia at the headquarters of Merrill-Lynch, Pierce, Fenner, and Smith called by the Organizing Committee for a new African Liberation Support Committee, the Revolutionary Student Brigade and Youth in Action. The leaflet discusses resistance in South Africa, such as student protests in Soweto that began on June 16, 1976. The spark of Soweto has become a flame of revolution - as millions of black working people take up the struggle. The Azanian People's Liberation Army is formed to take up armed combat against the colonial regime. Without U.S. support, the settler states of southern Africa would collapse. The U.S will do everything it can to protect the $1.6 billion U.S. corporate investments there. The leaflet says the organizers are collecting jeans, sneakers, blankets, and army fatigues for the liberation groups. The leaflet says sales of the Krugerrand is a last-ditch effort by the white settler regime to raise money to finance the South African army, the best equipped in Africa outside of Egypt. The leaflet mentions freedom fighters, miners, Jimmy Carter, Andrew Young, oppression of Blacks in America, a former Defense Minister, IBM, GM (General Motors), Polaroid, and the USSR. • LONG LIVE THE SPIRIT OF SOWETO!
